Assay Name
In Vitro Calcein AM Cytotoxic Assay (Cell Viability)
Short Description
SW 780-cell based In Vitro Calcein AM Cytotoxic Assay (Cell Viability)
Assay Description
Calcein AM is another non-fluorescent cell permeable dye, which is converted to green-fluorescent calcein by viable intracellular esterases. Calcein violet AM, calcein red-orange, Oregon green 488 and 5-CFDA-AM are other examples of dyes used to monitor cell viability based on esterase activity in viable cells.
Assay Type
Cell Viability/Cytotoxicity and Antiproliferative Assays
Assay Type Details
Uncontrolled proliferation is one of the main features of cancer cells. Cell-based in vitro assays are employed to determine whether test molecules possess direct cytotoxic/antiproliferative effects in cancer cells.
